NFC Championship Game Loss For The Packers….Disappointment?

I’m going to state the obvious, if you didn’t know it already, I’M A PACKERS FAN!!!  I wrote a post awhile back indicating how impressed, surprised, shocked, and amazed I was at the Packers unbelievable season.  If you would have told me in August of 2007 that the 2007/2008 GB Packers would be 13-3, host a playoff game AND host the NFC Championship game I would have told you to stop drinking and get some help.  In my head, at the time, I said to myself, what if, what if?  I would be happy with that, I would be OK with making that the pinnacle of my season, as a fan.  Now, I’ve completely changed my mind.  I am not and will not be OK with JUST making it to the NFC Championship game!!!! 

 The stars have aligned for the Packers, and their aging quarterback, to make a run at the improbable….A WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!!!  I realize that 1) the Packers have to win this game – most important! and 2) that the Patriots (more than likely the representative from the AFC) will be the prohibitive favorite, but it’s all there for the Packers to take and run with it.   

 If the Packers lose this game, it will be a monumental disappointment.    If they do lose, I more than likely not even watch the Superbowl.  Well, that’s probably not true, because I’ll probably play in some SB pools, and try and make some money on a game that I will detest watching!  Thinking about it further, it would be more than a disappointment it would be a sports travesty (I know I’m being dramatic, but it would really su**).  I realize the Giants are 9-1 on the road this season (that stat is Unbelievable), with two of those wins in the playoffs (with the last one against the best team in the NFC), but they are indeed a 5 seed in the playoffs, they are coming up to Lambeau, and they have a relatively untested, skittish QB, so not only should the Packers win, they should win handily.  I’m not sure if that will actually happen (a blowout), but I do believe that the Packers will come out of this game the victors, if for no other reason other than the stars told me so……
